ok guys here it goes...

i just got done dropping off my trailer and i was coming back through cleburne on my way to weatherford. im rolling up to a stop light and the light turns green. I get into it pretty hard and as soon as it hit second gear BAM!! The tranny shifted pretty hard and the axle wrapped so much when it hit second that it broke the lift blocks (which were aluminum((bad idea)). it broke my drive shaft, e-brake cable, u-joints, twecked my leaf springs, mess up my exhaust, TKO'd my bed. damge was right at $5,000

i was out of a truck for 6mnths.

here is a couple more pics...
